PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

i had a friend named lam trang who taught me what it is to whisper longing.. one day he and his family in vietnam wished to see a different sight to touch a different life..

and as they ran for the border of their country to escape and leave life behind to see what that dream looked like sounded like felt like.. he was shot by an AK-47 in the leg..

he ran bleeding and near death from the world that tried to hold that back..

and his hand clasped in hadnshake upon my warm skin told me this story..

and now i tell u what i call true wanting.. when life itself is ur limit only that is when u know my words.. hear them well.. and understand..
